websphere 7 backwards compatibility

I am migrating a JSF application from WebSphere(WAS) 6.1 to WAS 7.0 and I am experiencing html deprecation issues now that I am using the JSP 2.1 API provided with WAS 7.0 as opposed to the JSP 2.0 API provided with WAS 6.1. Weblogic provides the ability to enable backward compatibility (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/e13754/compat.htm#i1111538) in the weblogic app deployment descriptor. Is there a similar solution available in WAS 7.0? Is there a way to enable backwards compatibility in a deployment descriptor so the application can use JSF 2.0 API and not face the deprecated html issues?

There is nothing conclusive about this in the WebSphere Application Server 7.0 documentation, therefore I am led to believe that the typical IBM strategy is used here: The JSP engine you're getting with WAS 7.0 is JSP 2.1 compatible, period. You can't replace it and can't instruct WAS to use an older specification level.
